This little cottage is just over 800 square feet and has 2 bedrooms and one bath. Large corner lot could possibly be re-zoned for commercial use.Perfect location for those wanting easy access to Old Colorado City, Manitou, hiking/biking trails and more! Walk to Starbuck’s (that alone should be enough to make you want this house).

This home is bank owned REO and needs lots of work BUT could be a great opportunity for an investor or someone who want to live there and do their own rehab.

My  idea would be a cute little shabby-chic cottage with a new kitchen and bath but keep the charm of the Victorian styling. So many options for the right person. Contact me to set up your own private showing.

I asked the buyer if they were working with a Realtor. She said “no, we always call the listing agents. That’s what my family does.” What? Why? How?

This buyer is missing out on critical information that a good buyer’s agent would provide. When time is short and the market is moving fast, a buyer does not have time to waste calling listing agents.

It has long been a myth that calling the listing agent direct will net a buyer a discount on the commission. I am here to dispel that myth right here and now! The seller of the home has already agreed to pay a total commission of X%. The listing agent is nt going to give you, the buyer part of his paycheck just because.

The listing agent is also working for, you guessed it, the seller! They will not represent you in the transaction. Think about it–this is maybe the biggest investment that a buyer will make in their life. Wouldn’t it be a good thing to have some help and representation in the transaction? The seller’s agent is to get the best terms, price and conditions for THEIR client–the seller, not you as the buyer.

The buyer that called me today is wasting their time! Savvy buyers know to interview a good professional realtor in Colorado Springs. Don’t waste valuable time. Call or contact me now for information on how you can buy a home in today’s market without wasting time and money calling on homes that have already sold!
